Chapter 639 I Want To Talk To You
While Cassie was engrossed, a silhouette suddenly inched close and grabbed her by her waist. She was so astonished by the sudden act that she screamed out loud. Yet, that person cupped her mouth to stop her and remarked in a deep voice beside her ear, “Honey, it’s me.”
Only then did Cassie stop struggling and turn around to look. And of course, it was none other than June.
Annoyed, she raised her leg and stomped forcefully on his feet. Surprisingly, the man did not flinch a wee bit and instead gazed at her with affection and warmth, as though he was looking at a young girl throwing tantrums because she was angry.
“Honey, are you still angry?” June let go of his hands as he put on a wide smile.
Cassie glared daggers at him and spat through gritted teeth, “Why are you here?”
“I’ve installed a tracking system on you. That’s why I’ll know wherever you are,” June exclaimed with a playful smile.
Anger instantly grew within Cassie that she could feel it burning in her chest.
“You had someone tail me?”
“What do you think?”
“Order them to retreat, or else I’ll call the police and report you for harassment.”
“Sure, go ahead and call then. If even a fiancé trying to get near his fiancée constitutes harassment, then I have nothing to say.”
“Y-You…” Cassie took a deep breath and tried to recompose herself.
With his eyes on the two lovebirds caressing each other some distance away, June giggled. “Cassie, look at how well Oscar treats his wife. The mere sight of that makes me excited.”
An overwhelming humiliation surged within Cassie as she shifted her gazes at Oscar, and without hesitation, she strode off.
June hurried behind her.
“Honey, the man you love has no love for you. Is your heart feeling a little sore?” It seemed like June was trying to add fuel to the flames.
She walked back and threw him a ferocious glare. “Stop being so sarcastic, June. Even if I mean nothing to him, I still love him. And listen, I’ll never fall in love with you, so it’s best you give up on that thought.”
A hint of gloom flashed across his eyes but soon vanished as he broke into a smile.
“Honey, a stubborn woman isn’t an adorable one. I honestly prefer how you are while in bed.”
“Shut up.”
June shrugged his shoulders and said smilingly, “Honey, see that? The man who said he loves you treats another woman adoringly yet casts you aside. Why don’t you come to me instead? I’ll help you teach that snobbish man a lesson.”
Cassie snorted frostily and went inside the car without saying anything. Seeing that, June blatantly opened the car door and slid in too.
“Get out of the car.”
He leaned in and left a peck on her cheek. “Honey, you look so adorable when you’re annoyed. How I wish I could pin you down and get right into that matter!” He smirked.
Cassie vehemently stepped on the accelerator, and the car zoomed off as quick as a flash. Caught off guard, June almost flew out of his seat as he had yet to put on his safety belt. If not for his fast response to grab hold of the car seat, he would have crashed straight into the front windscreen. The consequence for him, without a doubt, was either heavily injured or dead.
“Honey, so you have such kinky taste, huh? But it’s illegal to murder your husband.” June was still in the mood to joke around.
Cassie glowered at him and clenched her teeth tight. “Why didn’t I hit you to death!”
He chuckled. “I’ve yet to marry you, honey. How will I have the guts to die before that?”
In response, Cassie turned the steering wheel, and the car whizzed off at an intense speed before finally stopping in front of a five-star hotel.
“Follow me out of the car if you have nothing to fear.”
Finishing her words, she got out of the car.
June smirked and hurried behind, feeling his mood lifted instantly.
After Cassie asked for a presidential suite, they stepped into the elevator to head up. Just as she opened the door, June pushed her in and planted a kiss on that lips of hers.
Perhaps because the sight of how Oscar treated Amelia had provoked Cassie, she reciprocated enthusiastically this time. It was almost as if she had given up on herself that she tangled her body so passionately with June.
Cuddling onto Cassie, who was so tired that she had drifted off to sleep, June pecked her hair with affection and whispered, “What a foolish woman. You clearly love me, yet you’re unwilling to admit it. Instead, you’re clinging to a man who doesn’t love you. Tell me, why are you doing that? Isn’t it a great idea to stay by my side and let me love you?”
Just then, Cassie began mumbling in her dreams.
Little did June expect to hear those words as he tilted his head closer. “Oscar, why are you so heartless? It’s almost three years, yet you’re unwilling to forgive me? I love you so much. Don’t you know that?”
At once, an ominous expression settled in in June’s face.
“Honey, perhaps I should ruin that man since you can’t get over him. That way, you’ll only have me in your mind.”
He lay down with the woman in his arms and soon fell into a deep slumber after laying down.
Unexpectedly, he dreamed of Oscar looming over him and uttered, “June, in Cassie’s heart, you’re nothing but a temporary substitute. You’re nowhere comparable to me. Cassie will never be yours.”
That left him so infuriated he called out even in his dreams, “Cassie will be mine.”
When his eyes snapped open, he realized he had sat upright. A look of puzzlement washed over Cassie’s face as she said crankily, “Why are you making a row? It’s fine if you don’t want to sleep, but I’m trying to sleep here. You’re undoubtedly a sicko who doesn’t spare a thought for others at all.”
June held her waist and flashed a devilish grin. “Honey, do you miss me already? I know you must be reminiscing about me waiting on you, but you can’t just wake me up in the middle of the night. Be good; let’s go back to sleep together.”
Cassie rolled her eyes at him and wanted to get off the bed. However, June grabbed her tightly and pulled her toward his embrace, and muttered groggily, “Be good, honey. It’s still early; let’s have more sleep.”
Unable to break free from him, she could only give up on struggling and continue sleeping.
Early in the morning the next day, June walked to the window beside the bed upon waking up and made a call to an unfamiliar phone number.
On the other side, Kate had curiosity rearing in her head when she received a call from an unknown number during breakfast. She did not want to pick up initially, but seeing that Terrence and Finnick were all looking at her, she had no choice except to answer the call.
“Hello.”
“Is this Mrs. Hisson? I’m June, a foreign businessman, also the general manager of Fortis Group. Coincident or not, I know both Amelia and Tiffany, and I would like to chat with you regarding the two of them. I wonder if you could make time to meet me?”
In a glacial tone, Kate answered, “I don’t know you. If you want to talk business, you can get your secretary to contact the Hisson Group directly. I don’t know much about business. Thank you.”
“Hold on, Mrs. Hisson,” June said gently. “Since you’re worried that I’m a scammer, I’ll get my secretary to get in touch with you. I believe you don’t wish to see your son marrying Tiffany as much as I don’t.”
He hung up promptly after that.
An array of emotions flashed across Kate’s face, and her eyes flickered as she lapsed into thoughtful silence.
“Who was that on the line?” Finnick inquired.
“It’s just a marketing call to promote some products. That person even asks if I’m interested in investing in them since that’ll bring me good profits.”
“That surely is a scam. Don’t trust him.”
“I know.”
On the same dining table, Terrence was having his oatmeal quietly. Overhearing their conversation, he lifted his head and stared profoundly at Kate, seemingly speculating if those words she just said were absolute truth or otherwise.
